Krampus

Krampus oppose the happiness of the Winter Solstice. They enjoy stealing presents and replacing them with coal, which they defecate. They can magically squeeze through and compress into small spaces, often making their homes inside garbage containers. They smell like rotten eggs. Though the sounds of joy and happiness do not physically harm them, they cause krampus great distress.

Athletic. You have proficiency in the Athletics skill.

Compression. You can enter spaces small enough to admit Tiny creatures without squeezing.

Garbage Stench. You can use your action to exude an oil that smells like rotten eggs. For 1 minute thereafter, any creature other than a krampus that starts its turn within 5 feet of you must succeed on a Constitution saving throw (DC = 8 + your Constitution modifier + your proficiency bonus) or become poisoned until the start of that creature’s next turn. On a successful saving throw, the creature is immune to your stench for 24 hours. Once you use this ability, you can do so again only after you finish a short or long rest.

Although this extra limb allows you to wield three weapons, it doesn’t allow you to make more attacks than you might while wielding only two weapons. Also, while using your tongue as a limb, you can’t speak clearly, making verbal spell components impossible.

Languages. You speak, read, and write Common and Monstrous. Krampus also commonly learn Gutteral and Infernal.
